All brake lights dead

The lamps are good but no lights illuminate when I apply the brake. I looked for a fuse in the engine compartment fuse boxes and found none labeled as brakes. Tested all of them just in case.

Is there a brake relay or fuse somewhere else in the van that could be cooked?

In my 2003.......
There is a 15amp fuse labeled "stop".
This fuse is located in the fuse panel in the passenger compartment....driver's side.
There are 5 columns of fuses, in the 2nd column from the left, 2nd fuse from bottom.
The lamps are turned on/off by a switch that is up under the dashboard.
I think that it will be located someplace on the shaft that connects to the brake pedal.
I have not looked at it, but the location diagram on Alldata seems to have it in that area, and states that it is inside the passenger compartment.

I hate how you have to take bolts out of the dash to get to that fuse panel.
